Carlos Carvalhal is backing the Liberty Stadium factor to get Swansea City over the line in their fight for Premier League survival after defeat at Bournemouth further increased their considerable worries.

The Swans lost 1-0 to the Cherries - who confirmed their own retention of top-flight status with victory - as Ryan Fraser’s deflected free-kick settled the contest.

Swansea spurned great chances through Jordan Ayew and Mike van der Hoorn as their winless run stretched to seven games.

They have home fixtures against Southampton and Stoke to come in SA1, where they have lost just once in the Premier League since January 3.

“When you get to this point and you still have it in your hands to do something, then let’s do it,” he said.

“We are strong at the Liberty, my team plays better at home, the fans can make a big impact and we believe in ourselves.

“We don’t need to listen to a radio or watch another team on TV, there are things we can do.

“Southampton is a big game, but I believe we will do it.

“We must do our job, winning games, if we do that we do not rely on others.

“If we win we stay up, for sure, so we must do it.”

The former Sheffield Wednesday boss also insisted he has no concerns over his side’s lack of goals as they approach a week where continuing to draw blanks could end in relegation.

Swansea have now found the net just twice in their last seven games, and they are the joint-lowest scorers in the division with just 27 goals from 36 games.
